Dharma: Satyamtva Rtena Parisinchami, Rtamtva Satyena Parsinchami. This is the basic truth about food.
It follows without saying that questions regarding the eating of animal food etc... are to be discovered by each individual as not conducive to the spiritual development though they may be compromise formula for those who follow the paths other than spirituality. The subtler and spiritual the food that one eats the more perfect becomes his capacity to respond to the Divine force that is always flowing into one. Indeed in a sense it is that which gives such power to spiritual men. It may be perfectly possible that some may claim the spiritual force to be capable of changing the bad food into excellent material or transform blood and wine into spiritual food:- the veera-marga tantrics have held that the panchamakara could be utilized and sublimated into spiritual forces. Mada, matsya and mamsa are said to be necessities on the sadhana. Such a view however tempts the worst possible developments and should not be undertaken.
We are seeking the Ultimate. The Ultimate discards all desires and anything that produces desires or intensifies them must be said to be nishiddha or prohibited. Thus constant Divine thought is necessary and one must receive all that one gets or earns as given by God. The Ishavasyopanishad puts it: Tena Tyaktena Bhunjithah- renouncing that any thing is yours (i.e. thinking that everything has come from God as Prasada), one should enjoy (be happy) that which is given (Yadrccha Labha Santushti).
This will make all organs, organs of God, oneself the body of God, and no activities will go perverse or bind one. Desirelessness will be improved and one begins to get the glimpse of the Ultimate in oneself.
